Did any one heard of EB3 India 485 Approved after June 26? Looks like EB3 visa numbers for this quarter for India is exhausted! If so then who many will be available in next quarter?
When will the 40K unused EB quota of visa numbers will be available /open? In mid September? Can any of the Gurus explain this?
My friend took info-pass and he was told that the EB3 India visa numbers are over for now and his case may be approved in next quota.
Looks like the first 40K in the 485 queue whose processing is done will get there 485�s approved in late September.
For some one like me who files 485 in June chances of approval in this year is less.:confused:
I just want to set the expectations real so that we will not be subjected to perpetual checking of online LUD/Status, forums and also avoid huge disappointment.

Your question has been answered at www.immigration-law.com ( advanced Q&A section). I am copy pasting :
Q-74 (04-15-2006): I had a pending RIR (EB-3) labor certification with priority date of October 2004. In November 2005, I filed PERM (EB-2) which was approved in February 2006. I filed I-140 (EB-2) right away. Now, my RIR was approved. I plan to file another I-140 based on RIR (EB-3). Can I carry over the priority date of October 2004 to EB-2? What should I do to carry over the October 2004 priority date?
A-74: The immigration regulation provides that when an alien has multiple "approved" I-140 petitions with different classifications, the alien can use the earliest priority date. This carry-over of the priority date is available regardless of difference in the occupational classifications, preference categories or employers. Unlike common misunderstanding, one cannot seek amendment of the approved I-140 petition to change the priority of a given petition. In your case, once your EB-2 I-140 petition is approved and the visa cut-off date for EB-2 for your country moves to October 2004, even if your EB-2 priority date is November 2005, you can file I-485/I-765/I-131. In filing I-485, you should attach EB-2 I-140 approval notice (original) as the underlying I-140 petition and submit a photocopy of the approved EB-3 I-140 approval notice as an evidence to prove the priority date of October 2004. Thus, EB-3 approval notice serves the sole purpose of proof of the priority date and nothing else. Once EB-3 approval notice is attached, the agency will pull out the EB-3 proceeding file to determine whether the EB-3 petition has been revoked for fraud or error. Unless such revocation is detected, the agency will keep processing your I-485, I-765, and I-131 based on the approved EB-2 I-140 petition and using the priority date of October 2004 for the purpose of determining availability of a visa number to approve I-485. This priority date transfer should not be confused with the rule of transfer of pending I-485 from one approved I-140 petition to another approved I-140 petition. Soon, the popular substitution of labor certification is expected to be eliminated, which provided a valuable means to pick up earlier priority dates. In its place, it is likely that more and more people may file multiple petitions with the same or different employers and for same or different occupations in different preference categories to take advantage of the current rule of transferability of earliest priority date among different classification of the approved I-140 petitions.

1. It has nothing to do with immigration (unless you factor that "chinese mother" is an immigrant), which is why this thread is on interesting topics.
2 and 3. I had not even heard of the article until today and told the same to my doc. She brought up the topic because I am Indian.
4. Personally, after having read it, there are a few things I agree with the author and there are many I don't.
BTW, I had not read the CNN story either. Many of the things that I did not like in Amy's article are addressed in the CNN story!
Here's more critics who " love " her style of parenting ...

who the hell leaves their 3 year old out in the cold .
And btw how much she is Chinese is up for debate since she grew up here and can't even speak Mandarin... ( from the article )

firstly, thanks for replying.
I just wanted to be clear about this. So if I maintain my F1 status somehow by enrolling at kaplan/community college and then find a research job which is willing to sponsor for H1B, I can apply any time of the year for this class through non-profit organization/institute of higher education?
do you have any govt. links where I could find more info on this? Any input of yours will be greatly appreciated!!!!
A non-profit organization, such as a University, can hire you any time on H1-B. The job does not have to be a research job.

I saw the suggestion of asking lawyer to send AP while you travel to India without it. Although it sounds like a good idea but could be dangerous. I had a situation last year when I travelled to India with AP applied for but not approved. Unfortunately i had my old passport and visa damaged in India. When my lawyer wanted to expedite AP so that i can travel back as my old Visa was damaged and the only way to travel back was to use AP, they found out USCIS has issued an RFE on AP. Though RFP was trivial and they only wanted a clear copy of first page of passport and AP was approved immediately when it was submitted.
I agree. This is very risky. I had applied for AP way back in June '08 and while my wife got her AP in AUG, mine was happily ignored till used DHS 7001 to escalate my case. I ultimately received an RFE saying that I did not include photos (which I know 100% sure I did ... they probably lost them). 3 Soft LUDs since they've received my photos, but no approval yet. I might be canceling my trip to India that commences on thanksgiving weekend if it does not come in time.

My I140 is approved on October 24 2007 and original document has got my lawyer and employer, but I have not received any original document. My question is: Does I can get original document or I have to ask to my lawyer or employer?
EB2 or EB3?
NSC or TSC?
when was it filed?

What your lawyer says in incorrect. I have had my visa stamped successfully only for 3 months validity in the past. Even this time I have only 2 months left (until Feb 2008) but am still going for stamping. So do not worry. As long as you have one more day left, you can get it stamped. Good luck.
bach007 , I do very much appreciate your reply. I did call up mumbai and delhi visa center and they also said the same thing. Needless to say my lawyer needs to do lot of reading and research before answering any queries.

Hey Guys,
I am not sure about the status in 2009, but till the end of year 2008 I didn't face any problems. I used to travel at least once in a quarter to over seas during 2006,2007,2008 and almost all the times my POE is SFO. I never faced any problem, in fact entry in through SFO is like a automated process at vending machine or grocery store . Submit the form, copy of H1B and then give finger prints and smile for photo(if you have energy after long hours flight). Only question they used to ask is "are you bring any food items?"
One thing I observed is, if you confuse IOs by trying to give more information or giving more documents etc, you will be creating problems . Always I used to answer YES for the question "are you bringing any food?". Some IOs questioned about that and didn't bother to ask H1B related questions. This trick has been worked so far for me. I have all the documents and didn't have any problem with status, job etc. But still why you want to discuss more about those and create problems for yourself.
I heard one guy gave his AP document with H1B visa and requested the IO to consider only H1B. In this case IO didn't accept the H1B, as IO thought this guy has more advanced visa(in this case AP). These are the things we should be very careful, if you want to use your H1B, don't even talk about or show AP or any other documents.
Thanks,
Veera

This is a grey area, in my opinion, some lawyers say that you should file those documents for AC21 and some say don't (just wait for RFE, if any). But I have seen people getting success and failure with either method on several other boards. Maybe it depends on how similar your new job description is to the old one and the IO.
